Best multi cast narration ever!

I honestly cannot tell you enough how much I loved this story ! This multi cast of brilliant narrators brought it to life perfectly! This entire book is like the best orgasm in your ears! I have fallen in love with every character throughout Amy Daws' books. Each book although can be read as standalones, takes you through the amazing journey of each one of the Harris's life. and I am truly honored to read and listened to every single one. Roan and Allie's story is one of intense passion and extreme heartbreak. But through it all, the over all love of the Harris's and Roan had my heart stuttering. Such a phenomenal story . Loved every minute of this audio. And the beauty of audio, is that I can re listen as many times as I want😍

Amazing Narration!

Payback was such a delight to listen to. In true Amy Daws fashion it combines the perfect amounts of fun comedy and steamy romance. Allie and Roan are such a cute couple and constantly had me giggling while listening. The narration was perfect and really brought all of the characters to life.

The appearances of the Harris family was a wonderful bonus to this story. They are one of my all time favorite fictional families and I enjoyed getting updates on all of these characters that had already stolen my heart. I really look forward to Blindsided, which will feature another couple from this world Amy Daws has created

It's so good to be back with the Harris clan!

Performance Review:
Definitely above what I was expecting.
This story involved SO MANY characters and I was nervous that it may not sound like I had imagined in my head. When I began listening, I knew that it was going to be BETTER than I imagined. I felt every emotion and it was as though I was there with them in the story. Fantastic performance.

Story Review:
"Why are you so persistent about this?" Pinning me with his smouldering eyes, he lifts his brows knowingly. "Because I know anything worth having is worth working hard for."

Let me just be fair in saying I'm 100% in love with the Harris brothers, their women, and basically anyone lucky enough to truly be a part of their life. I just want to get that out there right at the beginning, okay? Okay. Now, let's talk about Roan.

Right from the beginning, I was totally into him. I can't even tell you how much I'm anticipating the audio to hear the accent, because I think I may swoon more (I'll let you know). As the story continued, I was waiting to be annoyed, frustrated, or even disgusted with Roan, but ... I just wasn't. He is such a good guy.

Allie, although from the Harris line and quite likable, frustrated me. I completely understood how hurt she was and how badly she wanted to make herself feel whole again. I could even understand her plan of attack in seeking revenge, but ... I'm not sure I fully agreed with her. You feel me? Also, I'm a HUGE fan of honesty, so when she keeps gliding past opportunities to share the truth, I was so disappointed.

BUT, this story...gah, lovely. Allie and Roan have much to face in finding one another, but I loved that it seemed Roan was the one truly giving his feelings first. So often, I feel, in stories about love that I've read, the woman is always revealing her feelings first and the man is just like, "Yep. You, too." This time, though, it seemed that Allie kept herself behind a wall. "Because that's sort of our rhythm, Lis. I always want more and you always want less."

I'm always in awe of how this series can seamlessly mesh laugh out loud humor, heart, realistic family dynamics, and the beautiful ride of love. One of my favorite series TO. DATE. Y'all, invest in the Harris brothers if you can ... and you will never want to come back to America again.

Wonderful narration, struggles with editing

This is a difficult audio book for to actually rate as I’m really torn between a 4 or 5 star rating. Right from the start all the way to the end, this was a non-stop book of ups and downs and if you have listened to the prior books in the series, you know how crazy those things are. I will also like to state that while this book can be read as a stand alone, I would not recommend reading it without having read the other books or you will have a bunch of spoilers. So if you are not interested in reading other books, then no issue with this book otherwise be warned there will be spoilers to what is going on with Vi, Tanner, Camden, Booker and Garth.
Allie Harris may only be a cousin to the those just mentioned but this siblings bring her into the fold and show her what family is all about. Family for Allie is different than her cousins especially living in the US and not London so moving to London was a major change.
Roan DeWalt is a dedicated football player and keeps his nose clean as he has too much riding on his career. Doing a simple favor in escorting Allie to a wedding didn’t realize how it was going to change his life.
I really enjoyed the interactions between Roan and Allie and having all the Harris family together. It was great catching up with them all and going through the struggles that Allie and Roan had going on. The author did a great job in writing that you really feel like you are a part of this group of people. I am sure it was a challenge with having four different people narrator this book and that is where my struggles come in with the rating. Not with the narrators but the editing because these four narrators did a wonderful job in bringing the characters to life. They put the emotions in their voices that the characters were feeling. You heard the laughs and worry and everything in between. What my issues are is during a conversation, say for example between Allie and Roan and Roan is talking then Allie replies, there is a pause between each character. It makes me as a listener really feel that each part was narrated separately and spliced together instead of each in the same room reading it together. Now I have listened to other books by this author with two narrators and have not noticed that so not sure if it is because of four narrators. The other issue is again with the conversations in which say Roan is speaking, then Allie, her narration is so much louder than what Roan’s is. Again it felt as it they were recording in different locations with the volume level set differently. The first few times both of these things happened it was easy to overlook but by the end of the book it really was standing out and taking away from the wonderful job that these narrators were doing with this wonderful book. So do I take stars away because of editing issues is my struggle even as I write this review because it is a 5 star written and narrated book. I am still very impressed with having this many narrators as it really made it easier to know which character was speaking adding to really being able to visualize the book. I really hope that the author finds a way to have another book in this series as I wasn’t happy to see the story come to an end.

What a fabulous fun story!

I couldn't of enjoyed this book more! Such a sweet romance with two very different people who have found true love. They overcome a serious obstacle which just strengthens their union! OMG the end was MAGIC.....I cried! Narrators were also wonderful! They brought the characters and story alive!
